Dental treatment of children poses significant challenges for clinicians. They often face fear and anxiety in a dental set up which leads to difficulty in achieving their cooperation. Hence, there is a need for modern technologies which will help a pediatric dentist to deliver oral health care to child with utmost comfort and quality treatment. 3D printing is emerging as a promising technology which have a wide range of scope in dentistry. The main idea behind this innovation is that the 3D model is sliced into many thin layers. The manufacturing or assembling equipment uses geometric data to build each layer sequentially until the final desired product is completed. There is sufficient literature which have discussed about the scope of 3D printing in various other fields of dentistry. But there is insufficient literature about its application in pediatric dentistry. Through this paper we intend to propose the scope of 3D printing in the field of Pediatric dentistry.
